British tennis stars Laura Robson and Heather Watson, along with the Lawn Tennis Association, have teamed up with Dogs Trust to create a video showcasing the charity's resident dogs taking on the roles of ball boys and girls.

The video was released to coincide with LTA's Great British Tennis Weekend, June 13-14, which gives families and friends the chance to enjoy free tennis across the country, and to spotlight some of the thousands of dogs across Dogs Trust's 20 rehoming centres in the UK, and encourage dog owners to enjoy tennis ball games with their pets. Robson commented 'I highly recommend involving dogs in informal tennis sessions as not only is it really enjoyable for you and your dog but it is great exercise and teaches them valuable socialisation skills'.
